the obama administration has been fighting back. it had required girls younger than the age of 17 to get a prescription for the pill, but it has lost the battle at least for now. senior medical correspondent elizabeth cohen joining me. obviously this has huge implications. but first, remind us what the morning after pill does. >> well, the morning after pill has to be taken within three days, preferably within one day, of having unprotected intercourse. and mainly what it does is it keeps the ovary from releasing an egg so that the woman doesn't get pregnant. >> why was this overturned? >> the judge said, look, the fda has been charged with looking at whether the judge is safe and effective. this drug is safe and effective and he said for girls under 17 as for women over 17. you can't make the argument that it's somehow less safe for girls under 17. the obama administration didn't really argue with him really, what they did say was we're worried that girls under 17 won't be able to read the instructions properly. and he said, look,

[ male announcer ] for years, bob took warfarin, and made a monthly trip to the clinic to get his blood tested. but not anymore. bob's doctor recommended a different option: once-a-day xarelto®. xarelto® is the first and only once-a-day prescription blood thinner for patients with afib not caused by a heart valve problem, that doesn't require routine blood monitoring. like warfarin, xarelto® is proven effective to reduce the risk of an afib-related stroke. there is limited data on how these drugs compare when warfarin is well managed. no routine blood
